We’re really missing our gym 😢...uhhhhh I mean lab. #chemistswholift #tbt

[Rovis Group @RovisGroup]

Out of sight, but not out of our mind...photoredox catalysis now in the infrared region! Check out our collaborative work with #BMSChemistry (@bmsnews) using spin-forbidden excitation to enable photoredox catalysis on mole-scale https://t.co/TtWLstx0sX

[New Iridium @new_iridium]

Surprise! There was a double hire!! We are excited to welcome Dr. Harit Vora to our New Iridium family as a Principal Scientist. Dr. Vora has years of experience from the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries that will prove invaluable to the team.

#Covid19usa may have kicked us out of our lab space, but it cannot keep us from innovating! We will be keeping busy reading, designing new reactors, and running computational simulations to optimize reactions when we return.
